Frequently Asked Questions

The spruce top offers a brighter, more focused tone compared to cedar, providing more clarity, especially in the higher register; it's a matter of preference.
The armrest is permanently affixed to the guitar, offering consistent support without the need for adjustment.
The construction is generally robust, with well-fitted parts; a gig bag and careful handling are still recommended for transport to protect the finish.
